SEATTLE -- A Lakewood police officer was charged with embezzling more than $120,000 from a fund for families of four colleagues who were shot to death while on duty then spending some of the money on trips to Las Vegas, the U.S. attorney's office said Wednesday.
Officer Skeeter Timothy Manos also is accused of making purchases of several thousand dollars at Costco and Home Depot with the money.
"This is a sad day for our community," U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan said in a statement. "These acts betrayed the memory of our fallen heroes, their families, fellow officers and all who supported the fund."

A Special Place In Hell, Police Edition
I know we have both praised and criticized cops on ZVTS, but this is beyond reason. This guy deserves everything they can dish out, and then some. His name is Skeeter. I just have to point that out, because as hillbilly and inbred as my neck of the woods can be, I've never actually known an Skeeter. Way to keep it fresh, Seattle.
